The numerical bottom-up model for 1 to 100 per cent clean energy is in the folder model_1_100
The numerical bottom-up model for 0.01 per cent clean energy is in the folder model_001

*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To run the model,

(i) 	Open the file project.gpr

(ii) 	Open the file DIETER.gms in the project window

[(iii)	If you want to use the dataset for the baseline scenario, open dataload.gms and change "gdxxrw data_input.xlsx @temp.tmp o=Data_input maxdupeerrors=100" to "gdxxrw data_input_baseline_scenario.xlsx @temp.tmp o=Data_input maxdupeerrors=100"]

(iv) Specify the scenario by changing "scenario.gms" to "scenario_*.gms" in DIETER.gms where * represents the scenario file you want to include

(v) Press F9 to start execution and wait until the model run is finished. The results appear in the file "results_to_excel.xlsx".

*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The model is written in GAMS. Download the software from gams.com and follow the instructions.

The model is numerically solved using the commercial solver CPLEX. You may have to purchase a license. Alternatively, you may use another solver.

*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To run the model extension with additional electrification (power-to-x), insert an asterisk between the quotation marks at $setglobal power_to_x "" in DIETER.gms
